Well, at least the sun is shining for them. Upon reading accounts, Korea was not a good go.

The Korean War was a brutal war; fought against a barbaric enemy in a primitive country under the worst environmental conditions US forces were ever asked to endure. This was the first “hot” encounter of the long Cold War

I can think of a fair few battles the USMC fought in the Pacific during WWII that were just as brutal if not more so and against an equally barbaric foe...................
If you want to learn just how barbaric the IJA soldiers were get yourself a copy of "The Curse Of Bushido" By Lord Russell of Liverpool (I think) will certainly open your eyes sure did for me.

The soldier in the foreground appears to be possibly native American.
